i mean what are the upsides, whats to stop them from just turning off thermal and seeing a fucking tank anyways
Is the adaptiv even worth it

Hard to PID a tank from far away

The only possibly way this could be used to some effect is to make all of your vehicles in a column look similar so that the enemy has to work out which vehicles are tanks and which are SPAA/IFVs etc.

Can you make it look like a school bus?

user, it's pretty difficult to see tanks with EO, unless you're really close, and in my field we're pretty fucking far away. Same things with most vehicles, unless they're unnaturally shaped.

it seems pointless if you can just hide the thermals completely anyways.
Plus optic camo which... is actually insanely easy to accomplish. Just make a flexible plasma cover with stereoscopic displays and riddle it with cameras. You could actually make something like this TODAY with OVER THE COUNTER TECH (of course, custom software)

Missiles with dual-mode sensors are more likely to be confused by a target that appears to be a civillian vehicle than one which has no signature at all.
Optical recognition isn't used by anything serious and hasn't been for a long time.

Pic related work as good for tenth the price.

What the fuck are you talking about? hasn't been for a long time? You realize it takes some advanced AI algorithms to determine something optically right?
Sometimes I think you guys pretend to be retarded on purpose.

If you defeat thermal, IR, radar, acoustics, what else do you have but visual tracking? Seismic possibly but you need to place senors down first (which could easily be done with drones but still)
